2) when I was a member on t4r ... Everyone for the most part hated spc/light racing (said they were crap)... Everyone chime in please!?!

3) best place to buy? (Coupons, discounts, free shipping ... Blah blah)

4) whatever you wanna add about ucas (opinions in general)?

 

Light Racing have the most adjustability over uniball and they have come a long way with their bushings which were garbage. Marie @ Headstrong is the best place to get them. @Unchained 5150 can hook you up for the best price with her. I have no complaints and that is what I am rolling with on 35" with factory spec alignment and 4* caster.

 

I assume you need UCAs because of alignment issues. Do those arms add caster? For the price LR UCAs are hard to beat. As long as you are not doing long travel type off-roading, I don't see an issue with them. I have had mine for almost 4 years and not one peep of trouble. Uniballs are more upkeep than a regular ball joint as well.

 

Had LR UCAs, blew through two set of upper ball joints in <60k miles. Replaced them with JBA UCAs. Been excellent so far and ball joints are serviceable and inexpensive.

The set you link is a pretty good price for uni-ball tubular UCAs. I'd be wary of an unknown brand so hopefully someone can chime in with information because those are almost half of similar majors.

I want to like the JBA but there's been so much development pain to get them to this point, but I guess they are pretty solid now. So good on JBA for sticking with it. I really like the idea of a bolt-on off-the-shelf balljoint that you can get at any NAPA.

FWIW, I ended up with Camburg BJ-type, they were the right compromise for what I wanted. If you're replacing the UCA you want additional caster built in. There's not much reason to replace them otherwise.

 

It looks like I'm going jba ... I don't wheel very often and when I do, it's very light... My daily and I treat her TOO nice lol and I love the dependability and the ability to fix the ball joint easily!

 

Thanks for the tag Headstrong can no longer offer the low price on the UCA's sorry

 

And honestly I have the Camburg Ball Joint type on mine and when I do it again I will go with the JBA Standard High Caster arms.

I have been looking at new UCAs for a while. Actually having some made.....I think. If this guy ever makes it happen. Ive been looking at Camburgs Ball Joints and just came across the JBA.
Why is it you would go with JBA over Camburg?

 

Ease of ball joint change, better alignment numbers, lifetime warranty
